Don’t Stress The Small Stuff
No matter how well you've planned, as the wedding draws near it's easy to get caught up in those tiny little details such as cake toppers, favours, the music playlist and much, much more.
The big mistake is to get wrapped up in the small stuff which can ruin your big day, if you let it.
Delegate, Delegate, Delegate
You've heard the old saying : "it takes a village". It was never more true than with organising a wedding.
So you don't get consumed by all the work, learn early how to delegate, and don't be shy about it. Your nearest and dearest will want to help.
De-stress With Fake Deadlines
When organising a wedding, time is rarely your friend. The biggest danger is that close to the date of the wedding you'll suddenly realise you have a million decisions to make, and things to organise, but time is fast running out. Use fake deadlines so you don't have to go to panic stations.
